Scene i'm Csurt.

During the deliberations of the Cir
cult Court Thursday an old citizen OF
the county came into court, took seat,
and for time was much interested in
the case being heard. After awhile in-
terest legged INTO Indifference, and in
difference terminated in heavy sleep.
After the old gentleman had enjoyed
a good nap he awoke, looked around,
and in a loud voice broke in upon the
solemnity of the Superior Court by
asking: Judge, about what time OF
day is it 2" No attention was paid to
the query, but the Court could not re-
frain from smiling. The old man
walked out and the business Of the court
was resumed
The old gentleman sent an apology
to the Judge and explained that the
reason he disturbed him with the ques-
ton was that he thought it about time
lie was taking another dram. The
apology was accepted, and Judge
Mclaughlin enjoyed the originality of
the apology more than he did the un-
looked-for interruption of his court.

TROUBLE At YALE.
A Senior Students Reasons for
Leaving the University.

A New Haven Conn special says
Alexander Erskine Duncan, graduate
of McGill University and IL member Of
School, has decided to withdraw from
Yale, and in a day or two will return to
his family in Baltimore, Ontario, Can
ada. He has come to the conclusion
that statements made in the lectures Of
the Rev. Dr. John E. Russell, Winkley
Professor of Biblical History, SAVIOR
strongly of heresy, and says that others
in the seminary are of the same opin-
ion. He said tonight: 81 should have
left Yale before to-day had mot thought
that / had better lay the matter before
President Dwight, who has been very
kind to me. My reasons for the step [
am about to take are now in his hands.
/ know that it is the policy of institu-
tons Of this kind to smooth over diAi-
culties Of belief, but | have decided not
to take degree from men who believe
in teachings striking at the fundamental
teachings of Christianity"
Mr.. Duncan declined to state the
precise grounds upon which he differs
from Professor Russell, but said that
the questions at issue were connected
in a measure with those which arose
before the Andover Prudential Com
mittee in the case of Missionary Hume.
Or. Russell, he said, took very much
the same ground as did Mr.. Hume re-
garding the probation after death theory.
This, however, was not the exact ques-
ton at issue. He said also that Pro-
fessor Russell's orthodoxy was ques-
toned last year and the year before.
1t was no new matter in the school ac-
cording to one of the theological stu
dents who is in sympathy with Mr..
Duncan. Other professors than DR..
Russell are criticised sharply by those
students who think that the school is
inclined to be too liberal in its teach
ings.
Professor Russell, when questioned
in regard to the matter, said that he
had heard of no dissatisfaction in the
Senior Glass, and had supposed that
the men were unusually well settled in
their belief If any dissatisfaction ex-
listed it was confined TO o small number.
Mr.. Duncan, of course, was at liberty
TO 60 if ne did not like what was Taught
at Yale. 1T is not true" said the Pro-
f,ssor, that the Yale Seminary is in
sympathy with Andover."

Especial telegram to the Dispatch.l
.DANvILLE, VA, March 11.-Adam
Lee and Henry Terry were to-day con
victed of robbing the Richmond and
Danville cars and sentenced to three
years in the penitentiary. TO areporter
Lee gave a full story OF how he and his
partner operated. One would enter the
car while the train was at Dundee,
across the river, and secrete himself.
BY previous arrangement the other
would station himself at given point
on the railroad, and as the train passed
the man in the car would throw off such
articles of freight as he had selected.
The goods would then be removed to q
safe spot by the man stationed on the
railroad.
Lee says they had been operating
since December last, and robbed cars
on six different occasions. The goods
were sold generally to colored people,
and the men made n living by their
rogueTy. On one occasion Terry was
too drunk to jump from the train, and
was taken to Greensboro, where he was
captured.

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
LYNCHBURG, March IL, 1887.
The public sale of the old Pir9iniaR,
which is advertised TO take place next
Monday, marks an era in the history
of Lynchburg. Founded in 1903, it
has steadily pursued its career of use
fulness to both State and city without
once lapsing from its duty to the old
Commonwealth. From its foundation
ii has been graced by the pens of some
of the ablest editorial writers of Viz
ginia, State that has been prolific Of
such talent. beginning with John
tiampden pleasalts, who has in turn
been followed by Richard Ii. Toler,
William Blackford, r. w. O. Terry,
General James Mcdonald, and numer-
Gus others, ending with the prese.,t
editor, Charles W. Button, who Tor
thirty years has controlled its destinies
and influence to the ent;;.e satisfaction
Qt his party friend... During all the
time elapsinS", since It's establishment il
he's 81 course, like other property,
changed hands, but il has never before
come 10 the block. This rather morti-
flying experience in its history has been
necesSitated by the failure of the par
ties who purchased it sixteen months
ago 10 comply with the terms OF pur-
chase and the fixed aud unalterable
purpose OF Mr.. Button TO retire from
its ownership and control The latter
gentleman withdrew from the editor
ship of the Viryinian In July.
1886, when he assumed the du-
ties Of postmaster in this city, and
with no intention OF ever resuming
the profession of journalism in Lynch
burg. Since the property has been in
the hands OF his son, the trustee, he
has per force contributed to its edito-
rial columns, but will terminate his
Iabors in this connection with the
sale Of the property on Monday
next II the old paper-whose name
is a Synonym for what is dignifed
and useful in political journalism

hands the community Ia which il is
published viii have less cause to re-

white Turley tobacco in this city IS
growing with considerable rapidity.
Forty thousand pounds of IL were sold
at The storage warehouse recently, and
weekly sales are expected to be con-
timed. Heretofore such of our manu-
faciurers, or those OF adjacent towns,
who used this tobacco have been COM
PEELED TO go TO Louisville or Cincinnati
for their supplies. It Is under the
present arrangement brought to their
doors. 1t is asserted by these who use
IL that il ia absolutely essential in the
use of navy ping, If they would
attempt to compete with the large
northern establishments, such as the
Lorillards, its light porous character
rendering il o much better absorbent of
swcetening than any other tobacco to
be found. IL is also asserted that its
sale can by no means hurt any of the
good grades Of Virginia leaf, but will
have tendency 10 drive from the mar
ktt the miserable stuff known as COM
mon and lugsthat have too long encum-
bered this market. In the accomplish
ment Of either purpose it will have
achieved a good work.
Cur city fire department has again
added to its usefulness by the manu-
faciure and introduction of what is
known as hose-wagon, built by mem
bers of the force, which is in oil re-
spects one of the most elegant speci-
mems of mechanical handicraft ] have
ever seen. IT is designed to supers EIDE
the old and cumbrous two-wheeled reel.
lis capacity for carriage Will be 1000
feet of hose.
An accident occurred on the Norfolk
and Western railroad, ct Buford s, which
resulted in seriously iniuring Conduc-
tor Robertson and negro brakeman.
They were brought 20 the city yester-
day morning about 8 o'clock. Yester-
day several cars of another eastern
bound freight were derailed within a
few yards of the former accident. No
one was hurt, but the accident delayed
the east-bound passenger train for five
hours.
The d6bris at the scene of the late
fire is being cleared away, and Mr.. r..
Il. Lacy will proceed to build at once
upon his part of the ground, the con-
tract having already been awarded.
Iron ore of apparently great value
and extent in the vein was discovered
yesterday on Daniels Hill in the city,
and within few yards of the city
limits.
Mrs. William II. Langhorne, for
mer resident of this city, died at her
residence in Appomattox on Wednes-
day. Her remains were brought here
and inferred to-day. She was a lady
of great worth, and is connected with
Il numerous and highly respectable
family in this section of the State.

CHICAGO, March IA statement Is
made here 10y Webster, one OF the arm
of Armour .& Co., that that firm has
decided not to build cotton-seed oil
mills at various points throughout the
South as heretofore announced. This
is an indirect contradiction OF the state
ment made by the firm four days ago,
but the fact that the mills are not to be
built appears TO be absolute. II is in
timated that the firm has arranged with
the cotton-seed oil syndicate to furnish
them with oil at contract prices, which
result was accomplished owing to the
threat to build opposition mills.
